how to get a quick cheap solution is court best?

My case should be straight forward except for my partners stubbornness. He
earns £55K I earn 17K. I have a son who is 14 and another 20 old student at
home. im only getting maintenance for one child and at mo he's paying half
the mortgage but only til son is 18. Then sell up and he wants 50-50 I want
70 -30 tried mediation waste of time. How can I get a fair slice?
The law doesn't protect the weaker party especially when you cant afford
legal fees.

A lot will
depend on how much you actually need to meet your basic housing
requirements. The strict housing need for each of you would be a two bed
property if both children are boys.

Taking the court route need
not cost a fortune. You can self represent but it is important to make sure
you really understand the process and are realistic about the likely
outcome. This site can offer support and we also have a number of low cost
services to help.

I have small pension he has only started paying in two years ago.(Both in
40s) What im wondering is arbitration cheaper/better than court? what on
average is the cost? How time consuming is it to self represent? I don't
get benefits as I have chosen to get another temp job which
takes my salary to 17k usual 14k . Is it better to try clean break now or
if I stay in property till son 18?I just want a fair settlement to provide
a home for me and kids post 18 but ex thinks they don't need to live with
me post 18. Thanks
